DeathTrail – Find Your Way Back After Death
DeathTrail is a lightweight and fully configurable plugin that helps players navigate back to their death location using a clear, visible particle trail.

Features
✅ Draws a particle trail from the player's current position to their death location
✅ Only visible to the player who died
✅ No blocks or entities spawned – 100% clean visual effect
✅ Works above ground, underground, in caves, etc.
✅ Fully configurable:

• Particle type
• Color (for REDSTONE)
• Trail step spacing
• Interval
• Max length

Configuration (config.yml)
How It Works

1. A player dies
2. Items are dropped as usual
3. A visible particle trail appears and continuously points back to the death location
4. The trail disappears automatically once all dropped items despawn or are picked up

The trail is displayed at the player’s eye level for maximum visibility – even if the death happened underground.

Note: it doesnt work if inventory is not dropped.

Installation

1. Download DeathTrail.jar
2. Place it in your plugins/ directory
3. Start or restart your server
4. Customize plugins/DeathTrail/config.yml as needed

No dependencies. Works out of the box.
